Christ at that title ha

This looks super charming and the price seems reasonable, despite not being big on 3DS these days I'll likely pick it up

Ahhhh speaking of super charming <3

 

[Berordn]

$7? I hope this game is reasonably long, but I can't imagine it being so at that price. The Robobot minigame was neat, but lasted a whole 20 minutes. Hopefully this has a bit more meat to it.

It's definitely got more to it, because of EX mode. I wouldn't go expecting a long game though. They seem to be styling it after KDL and you can beat that in about 25 minutes.

What time should this go up in the UK most likely?

 

[NintendosBooger]

Not a big fan of the thread's sub-title, to be honest.

It's disgusting.

 

[Impeccable]

Not digging the sub title.

 

[Shiggy]

At 2pm, so in 1 hour and 15 minutes.

It got you into this thread and read about this game apparently, so it was a success. Nobody talked/knew about Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, which is a shame.

 

[WonderzL]

I agree that the thread title is bad but whatever

At least some people know about the game now, aside from "oh it's just another Kirby

 

[Shiggy]

It's out now, Kirby shot on my 3DS once again.


And in light of the complaints about the title, you asked for it:

There's another Kirby game coming this winter, and I can come up with a follow-up title

I can't wait for the full announcement of Kirby's Gleeful Gangbang for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems.

 

[GinoFelino]

This thread title blows

OP, your title sucks

 

[Camjo-Z]

It's disgusting.

I agree, NintendosBooger.

 

[Shiggy]

The amiibo statues

Kirby sucks

Still not up in NA.

Infinite sadness. My life is without blowing.

Any benefits on going platinum all the way? I got 2 platinums and 2 golds on level 1 and still got the EX Stage

In Team Kirby Crash Deluxe it didn't do anything apart from giving you an upgraded board for the level select.

From this

to this

So it's probably more for yourself to platinum all stages.

 

[Shifty]

It doesn't look terribly ambitious, but it's one step closer to true 3D Kirby so I'll take it.

Atrocious thread title.

 

[WonderzL]

I'm impressed at how well Kirby bosses work in 3D.

 

[Narroo]

So, anyone know how long this game is?

 

[WonderzL]

So, anyone know how long this game is?

Counting EX stages, probably 2h tops

 

[BooJoh]

It took me a little under an hour to play through the main stages (not counting the EX stages, which are tougher versions of the same levels.)

There's also something marked "Secret Path" that requires getting a gold on everything, and I don't know how much content is in there.

Overall this feels like a nice throwback to Kirby's Dream Land, and the levels - while short - are much better than the ones in the Robobot minigame, but the price is a little steep for the content. I'm not unhappy with my purchase though.


Also, +1 to this topic having a terrible subtitle.

 

[Berordn]

Secret Path is essentially this game's version of Champion Road.

It's diabolical.

 

[Toxi]

You ruined Kirby forever Shiggy.

 

[vazel]

The title is just crude. Nothing funny or witty about it.

new title: Can you handle Kirby's **** ***?

 

[ScaryShark]

One thing about the thread title is it got me to check out a game I didn't know about but other than that it's garbage. The need to sexualize absolutely everything in video games is tiring.

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

Just blew (ha!) through it today and I'm already trying to platinum everything. I honestly hope we get a 3D Kirby in this vein on the Switch.
Also, the thread title is tops. The amount of bottom bothering it has produced is completely worth it.

 

[Cow Mengde]

This game is a bit too much to swallow.

 

[WonderzL]

Oh fuck so we need gold in the EX stages in order to unlock the secret path huh

 

[WonderzL]

Interestingly, this games uses the New 3DS' c-stick fasuhufsang

 

[BiggNife]

Is this game worth the seven bucks? I love Kirby but I'm wondering if it's worth the 2 hours of content. Destructoid seemed pretty lukewarm on it.

Also I laughed at the title because I'm 10 years old I guess

 

[tsundoku]

I was really intrigued by the camera angle and the concept of 3d platforming when it popped up in a direct.

But from the actual trailer it looks like its a really straightforward kind of boring inhale and then aim and shoot game? Are there any actual puzzles or platforms or exploration elements to it?

No powers just inhaling so they can't do any puzzles or locked off areas based on you finding and keeping a power right?

Are there a decent amount of states / properties to the inhale, or is it literally just inhale 1->n objects: little shot, inhale n objects: big shot
?

 

[DylanEno]

Are you fucking serious with that title LMAO

Spoiler

i love it

You could do a lot worse for 7 bucks, but if you're not interested in replaying the stages to get higher scores, there's not much to see after the credits roll.

Nope, it's a pretty straightforward expansion of the Planet Robobot subgame. No powers or abilities, nothing in the way of exploration. Short run n' gun stages with little arenas spread throughout.

The real meat is scoring platinums in everything.

 

[WonderzL]

that final stage was HELL.

Love the game.

 

[Waluigilicious]

I'm not easily offended or anything but that title is just bad. I mean, it's not even a subtle joke or anything.

 

[El Odio]

Breezed through platinuming most of the normal stages but is it even possible to platinum the EX stages? I got a high score of 52925 on 1-1 after speeding through it as fast as I can and that's still only a gold.

Time doesn't much matter as long as you get the award. The reason you haven't go platinum is because you didn't get the get the best chains.

Yes, you need chains. It's possible.

 

[El Odio]

Yeah, I was failing to suck up the group at the start completely and not getting the fullest possible chain from them. Finished this up just with my last platinum on the secret route. Surprised they didn't demand you get all the bonuses for the platinum like all the other stages.

You are a menace!

I played this for the first time tonight, it's an awesome game! Really impressed!

 

[Solid SOAP]

So is this game truly a reimagining of Kirby's Dreamland 1 in 3D? I keep seeing that thrown around this thread.

 

[RoseBell69]

That is a terrible thread title.

Kirby is cute and pure and is my friend and I am offended.

Seriously OP you should feel bad.

Yeah... same, you all.

It's heavily reminiscent of KDL but it's not a full remake, there's stuff from KDL that's not in this game. It's more like a 3D Spring Breeze, I guess.

 

[Sciz]

So is this game truly a reimagining of Kirby's Dreamland 1 in 3D? I keep seeing that thrown around this thread.

Only very loosely. It mostly uses a subset of DL1's enemies, music, and bosses, but in terms of overall game design you're talking about 60-90 second score attack sprints focused on racking up combos rather than any serious platforming challenges. The bosses are the only part that really come off as traditional Kirby.

 

[KirbyKid]

Congrats. We're in the same club.

Also, the other levels don't require you to get all the medals to get the platinum. There must be some kind of leniency with the scoring there. I played a previous level and didn't go fast enough I think, but still got platinum.


This is one of my games of the year. It started out meh. Then I started to get into the scoring. After platinuming everything, I could tell the level design was not only much less straightforward than I thought, but it took a considerable amount of planning and skill to pull everything off. Translating the 2D bosses into 3D is flawless. This game is a template for how other IPs can take their 2D, snappy, clear, and spatial gameplay and convert it into 3D properly.


I can't say enough good things about this game. Took about 13.3 hours to 100%. Well worth the money.
